[Verse 1]
He said he would beat it beat it up, beat it beat it up
I told em that what's up, told em that what's up
We connected eyes and he read my lip
I swung my hair and I hit my dip
And I'm coming off the top
He don't know another chick hotter
Flexing on 'em chilling in my Prada
Whole lotta chicks got beef get slaughtered
Money whole lotta, come on
It started just falling all down at once
You was with your friends when you put up a front
I was trying to get to know you better every time but
Every time I turn my head you switch it up

[Hook]
Boy stop playing with that thing I know you want it
I would love to make a change if you can afford it
You ain't 'bout that life stop fuckin' with me
Tryna act like you ain't checking for me
Don't be mad when another nigga looking at me
I got another 'nother nigga looking at me
If you playing
You know I ain't with them games
You ain't 'bout that life stop fuckin' with me
You ain't 'bout that life stop fuckin' with me

[Interlude]
Why act like you do, call you brand new shoes

[Bridge]
Then I pick you up when she let you down
Then you call me when you are lonely
Then I whip you up let you hit the road then I let you hit the town
The I answer when you are lonely
Then I dust you off then I take you in when she kick you out

[Hook] + [Bridge] (x2)

Tinashe Jorgenson Kachingwe, known mononymously as Tinashe, is an American singer-songwriter, actress, dancer, and former model born in Lexington, Kentucky and raised in Los Angeles, California.

Born on February 6, 1993, her rise to fame began with her acting on shows such as Two and a Half Men. Initially making her debut in the music industry via the short-lived girl group The Stunners—which also featured Hayley Kiyoko—she garnered attention from online music blogs with her 2012 mixtape, In Case We Die. Signing with RCA Records shortly after, she released two further mixtapes later that year and in 2013: Reverie and Black Water respectively. “2 On” was released in January 2014 as the lead single from her debut album, Aquarius, and remains her biggest solo single to date. Released in October that year, the album was praised by critics for its merging of old-school R&B sounds and fresh 2010s trends. The follow-up was subjected to much-criticised although “Player” was billed as the collection’s lead single as early as October 2015, songs released from the project failed to reach the label’s expectations, resulting in the release of an album’s worth of outtakes from the album, Nightride, in November 2016. Joyride was finally released on April 13: it features the singles “No Drama”, “Faded Love” and “Me So Bad”.

On February 18, 2019, Tinashe parted ways with her longtime record label RCA. By November that year, she inked a new management deal with Roc Nation and self-released Songs for You, her fourth studio album.
